The options are limited as we approach the Divisional Round of the playoffs, but Jamey Eisenberg is here to tell you who's worth a shot in your daily lineup with his Daily Dose.

The Jets signed tight end Jeff Cumberland to a three-year deal in March, and he will compete for the starting job with rookie Jace Amaro. Cumberland shared the starting role with Kellen Winslow in 2013 and finished with 26 catches on 40 targets for 398 yards and a team-best four touchdowns. He doesn't have much upside, but maybe the potential upgrade from Geno Smith to Michael Vick could help Cumberland excel if he can hold off Amaro for the No. 1 spot. Don't draft Cumberland in the majority of leagues, but if he starts off the season playing well then add him off the waiver wire.
